VAT Impact

How Value Added Tax (VAT) affects your Electricity Bill

Effective November 1, 2010, VAT will apply to electricity bills. The implementation of the VAT is mandated by the Federation of St Kitts and Nevis. The current VAT rate is 17 per cent, and in order to calculate the VAT amount, NEVLEC will prorate your bill based on the electricity consumed after November 1, 2010.
